Former Viking Caleb King enters plea in Anoka County

Former Minnesota Vikings running back Caleb King pleaded guilty Friday in Anoka County District Court to two charges involving an April 2012 incident at a party.

King, 25, admitted to interfering with a 911 call and to fifth-degree assault. He is scheduled to be sentenced Aug. 28 in Anoka County.

The University of Georgia alumnus was charged last year with third- and fifth-degree assault for allegedly punching a man in the face at a birthday party in Oak Grove, causing the man to get 19 stitches.

King, a Georgia native, was an NFL rookie in 2011. He was released from the Vikings three days after his arrest.
